About TRA-style invoices

This template gives you the standard fields a Tanzanian invoice should have: business name, TIN, customer details, line items, VAT (18%), and totals. It's NOT a TRA-VFD-stamped fiscal receipt โ€” only TRA-certified software (like Tawala Finance) can issue those โ€” but it's the right format for B2B invoicing where the fiscal receipt is issued separately on payment.

For full TRA VFD compliance, every sale must produce a fiscal receipt with a TRA receipt number and QR code. Read our TRA VFD setup guide โ†’

Is this template TRA-compliant?

Can I use this on mobile?
Yes โ€” every tool is mobile-friendly and works on any phone with a browser. No app install required.

Each calculator is built from primary sources: TRA Acts and Practice Notes, NSSF Act regulations, NHIF tariffs, BoT rates and ministry gazettes. We add a citation and date stamp at the foot of each tool.
